All Things Made New shows MacCulloch at his best - learned, far-seeing, sometimes subversive, and often witty.
Diarmaid MacCulloch is Emeritus Professor of the History of the Church at Oxford University, and Fellow of St Cross College and of Campion Hall. His Thomas Cranmer (1996) won the Whitbread Biography Prize, the James Tait Black Prize and the Duff Cooper Prize; Reformation- Europe's House Divided 1490-1700 (2004) won the Wolfson Prize and the British Academy Prize. A History of Christianity (2010), which was adapted into a six-part BBC television series, was awarded the Cundill and Hessell-Tiltman Prizes. He was knighted in 2012 and was awarded the Norton Medlicott Medal by the Historical Association in 2022.
MacCulloch not only brings a lifetime's learning to bear on his
subject, but writes with vigour, empathy and wit ... about identity
and memory, about the importance of myths and why historians need
to challenge them.
*Financial Times*
All Things Made New is a serious book on a serious subject. It is

*The Times*
MacCulloch is ... able to write authoritatively and engagingly on a
remarkably diverse range of topics in the history of Christian
culture and thought.
